Hello all,

i have been breaking my brain trying to get connection pooling, using
Tomcat 4.1.12's build in dbcp, with mySQL 3.23.

I have followed the instructions on the how this should be done, and I am
getting an exception when I try to get a connection .. (like many other
people it seems)..  If anyone has solved this problem.. or has a link to a
forum where this problem is answered please let me know..

I have downloaded mysql-connector-java-2.0.14.zip

I unzipped it and copied :
*  the contents of WEB-INF/lib to my lib folder
* contents of com to my WEB-INF/classes folder
* contents of org to my WEB-INF/classes folder (this *does* contain
org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver)

This does not work.  My jsp test code follows, and the Exception occurs on
getConnection()...

<%@ page language="java" import="java.sql.*, javax.sql.*, javax.naming.*"
errorPage="error.jsp" %>

<%
      Context initContext = new InitialContext();
      Context envContext  = (Context)initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
      DataSource ds = (DataSource)envContext.lookup("jdbc/mehdi");
      Connection conn = ds.getConnection();

%>

Exception is

java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class
'org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver'
